World premiere as it was 111 years ago
It was one of the biggest concerts in Vienna's history: large orchestra, choir and soloists. In 1913, the Wiener Symphoniker premiered Arnold Schönberg's Gurre-Lieder at the Musikverein, and the music-historical reverberations continue to this day. Now our new chief conductor Petr Popelka is taking on this work - together with the premiere choir, the Singverein der Gesellschaft der Musikfreunde, and a Champions League ensemble with Angela Denke, Florian Boesch, Vera-Lotte Boecker and David Butt. A major musical event that unites both the Schönberg anniversary and the 125th anniversary season of the Wiener Symphoniker.
